DS has managed to squidge the black playdo which santa foolishly gave him into the sisal carpet. Any tips for how to remove it? Thanks.

tricky!!! maybe put an icepack on it and try to brush it out when its hard?

leave it to dry and them pick it out with your fingernails! If you're lucky the dye won't leak into the fibres of the carpet.

My dd was given a set of highlighter pens and dropped one, lid off onto our jute floorcovering (I refuse to call it carpet!). It was at least an hour before I noticed, and I have used a whole packet of carpet wipes, and it's still not out!

thanks tissy and dolally. I fear it will be impossible to get rid of it all unless there is some kind of magic solvent you can buy. Will just have to move the rug so it covers the bad spot.
